WHAT IS TIT

A Pesttlence That Walks in Darkness A Destruction That W astes at Noon-
 day.
 We have published in our columns from time to time different advertisements in re- gard to Bright's disease and it's cures.
 What is this terrible diseases
 We have taken the trouble to make an in vestigation from the best sources and we give the results to our readers.
 What astonishes us is the general indiHer- euce given to kidney disorders. The kid news do not sound the alarm of their diseased condition owing to the fact that they have very few nerves, hence few suspect that there is any disease in them. Irritation, inham- nation, alteration set in, and then the little tubes, of which the kidneys are full, are de- stroyed and thrown of, and from this fact are called tube casts.
 As soon as this begins to take place it is only a que stion of how fast decomposition goes on before the disease results fatally. If the proper remedies are taken before final decor position or waste of these tubes con- mepces or becomes too far advanced, that is the only and last chance for relief. It is at this point or before that Warmers safe cure proves so beneficial, and may cure or stop the wasting away Of the kidneys 1T 1t has not advanced too far.
 The most remarkable thing of all our in vestigation is the fact that the patient with Bright's disease has no exclusive symptoms, but has the symptoms of every common dis ease.
 First he may possibly feel dull pain in his back, generally upon one side, which does not debar him from his usual business routine. After time he may begin to feel neuralgia pains, or have slight attack of what he may call rheumatism or headache, with high or dark colored urine, with an un- pleasant sensation in it's passage, and after standing showing an unnatural condition. r fan1ipuS 1nSS of ouoh hi tion or vigor, or loss of or failing eyesight, which is very common, with distressed condition of the stt mach. Anyone of these symptoms is liable to occur.
 This no doubt accounts for the propTietors of Warner's safe cure curing so many dis kidneys, symptoms of general ill health dis appear. They justly accuse the medical profession of treating the effects and not the cause. Finally if this disorder is neglected the patient either dies of apoplsxy, pneumo- nia, heart disease, blood poison, consump- tion or any other disease that the system is most subject to.
 It appears that General Logan realized his condition and twas we'll aware that his dis ease was of the kidneys, and expressed him self in indignant terms at the folly of the doctors in treating him for rheumatism when it was the kidneys that caused his attacks. '"
 We have no doubt that very many peo- pie in this country have the same trouble as the general, but little importance is at tached to this malady by the medical pro- fession because of their inability to cope with 1t, either in it's first appearance or advanced condition.
 There appears to be some one cause for nearly every other ailment of the human system, but up to the present time no one has been able to fully account for this ter rib1e malady. We understand that the people of Germany have become aware Of it's fearful fatality, and have offered four hundred thousand marks (one hundred thousand dollars) to anyone that satis- factorily explain the cause.
